What could annoy me more than losing Jericho?

Read on... from TV.com:

It's been an up and down the past few weeks for Veronica Mars fans. The future of the cult show looked grim but was momentarily turned around after network execs reportedly responded positively to new a direction for the next season.

Then, word spread that the CW had picked up three dramas, making a renewal for the detective show unlikely. Today, the CW released its schedule for the fall season, and -- brace yourselves -- Veronica Mars was not on it.

Kristen Bell fans shouldn't storm the CW's corporate office yet. Though Veronica Mars isn't on the schedule, The Hollywood Reporter says a final decision on the show may not happen until next month.

CW is lame. I'll go over their full lineup later or tomorrow (these upfronts are hard work and I've still yet to cover Fox), but this is the only really important news. I ask again: Why keep well crafted programming? Who needs it? Shunning intelligent customers seems to be a theme in this business. Keep Next Top Model and One Tree Hill, but toss Veronica Mars.

Maybe if crap like Next Top Model wasn't televised, people would watch the quality shows and not ride their attention deficit disorder into dimwitted oblivion.
